Fyrinnae Immortality, The Book of The Dead, Steam Punk, Bastet & Are You My Mummy

Are you sick of swatches yet!?
I have one more round after these five & then a whole bunch of Glamour Doll Eyes swatches!
Immortality
What Fyrinnae says:
A rainbow of sparkle in soft black.
My Thoughts:
I LOVE this color. I don't know when I'll wear it but it is so gorgeous. I'm not a huge fan of it when it's dry because it's hard to see the sparkle but when foiled, it's amazing. I think I might try it as an eyeliner. 
Seriously, look at the rainbow of goodness! The pictures don't do this color any justice. I just can't stop staring at it!!
Book of the Dead
What Fyrinnae says:
A slightly aged gleaming, sparkling beige-gold, fit for Osiris himself (we could hope!), graced with flashes of sparkle in varying hues. Neutral tone, not yellow. Halloween 2011
My Thoughts:
I love golds, I have tons of them. This color is so pretty. I like it dry or wet, I use it dry for my eyelid color fairly often.
Can I just say, I love the names for the eye shadows too? So clever & catchy!
Bastet
What Fyrinnae Says:
Deep, velvety black filled with gold sparkle. Great as a liner.
My Thoughts:
Another black based shadow! It's weird because I love them but I rarely wear them. I've been tanning & I feel like when my skin tone is darker I can pull off darker eyeshadows.
I love this shade, I think this would look really great with a forest green eye shadow. It looks kind of chalky when it's dry but when it's foiled or over Pixie Epoxy it's absolutely amazing!
Steam punk & Are You My Mummy are Arcane Magic Shadows which means..
Fyrinnae's Arcane Magic Eyeshadows are specialized colours with a highlight that changes hue depending on how the light hits it (closer to or further from a light). Different light sources may show different shades, too (they do not show as well in sunlight as artifical light, and some may not appear to change at all). Please note that the Arcanes will probably look a little different in photos than in person because of the light-change effect.
Steampunk:
What Fyrinnae Says:

Arcane magic Steampunk : A remake of our old Steampunk shade (but better!), this is an antiqued deep copper on black, with a touch of gold sparkle and hues of pink. Move it toward light or change the angle, and it becomes gold to chartreuse, the black base setting off the vivid highlight while still retaining its Victorian-era depth. Halloween 2011.
My Thoughts:
This color is so weird, it looks different every time I look at it. If you know me, I love anything purple based & to me this looks like a dark plum. I actually like this on better dry because you can really see the shimmer.
I'm pretty sure I will be purchasing many more of the Arcane shadows. They are so unique & gorgeous!
Are You My Mummy?:
What Fyrinnae Says:

Arcane magic: Are you my mummy?: It starts out a vibrant, gleaming emerald green. Closer to light or at an angle this shade takes on a striking deep pink color, almost a maroon. It's not simply a highlight; the entire shadow's hues change.Halloween 2011
My Thoughts:
I really thought I would love this color, but I'm not a huge fan. It's really hard for me to pull of greens becase my eyes are green, I think it ends up washing my skin out. I think I'll be able to use this as a crease color.
It's really shimmery & I do like the color but it is too close to my eye color!
Hope this helps!
